This color combo has been a favorite of mine from a very early age. A friend of my mom's did her sewing room in black-white-yellow and it was the first time I ever saw a room done over like that, so impressive. It was bright, chic, and friendly, and your outfit is just like that. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-yellow-1#post-1223342 Mon, 14 Apr 2014 23:54:01 +0000 pil 1223342@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful springy freshness! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-yellow-1#post-1223333 Mon, 14 Apr 2014 23:37:11 +0000 annagybe 1223333@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-yellow-1#post-1223324 Mon, 14 Apr 2014 23:28:18 +0000 Karie 1223324@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous! How is the fit on the Academy blazer? I've been meaning to stop in at Gap and try one on.</p> <p>I also love the color combo...no bumble bee in sight! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-yellow-1#post-1223312 Mon, 14 Apr 2014 23:10:14 +0000 Aida 1223312@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it! I can't wear much yellow, but I definitely enjoy it on others. You wear this beautifully. I personally enjoy pairing yellow+black+white (actually am wearing this +blush today). I think this looks great as-is, but see no reason it wouldn't also look good with a big necklace; I don't think a big necklace and a print is "too much" though, so don't mind me </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-yellow-1#post-1223251 Mon, 14 Apr 2014 21:56:22 +0000 unfrumped 1223251@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, you really pulled this off. Maybe because it's more citron-lemon-y and&nbsp;not bee-golden yellow, but I think it's just your fab styling--the colors and proportions are so pleasing that there are no bee-lines! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-yellow-1#post-1223236 Mon, 14 Apr 2014 21:16:43 +0000 Beth Ann 1223236@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Absolutely no bumble bee in sight!&nbsp; Although I'd sure take a flower or two at this moment (It's snowing outside.)&nbsp; Love this cheery shade on you, and you've styled it beautifully. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-yellow-1#post-1223234 Mon, 14 Apr 2014 21:13:55 +0000 Neel 1223234@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love black and yellow too!! But avoid it due to the bumblebee thing. Although you look nothing like a bumble bee. But a pretty spring flower on the other hand .... Yes ..... I love sunny and happy outfits! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-yellow-1#post-1223160 Mon, 14 Apr 2014 19:29:46 +0000 rae 1223160@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well I just love love love this! I wish I had a top like that to go under my citron leather jacket. I also happen to love orange with black! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-yellow-1#post-1223061 Mon, 14 Apr 2014 17:18:28 +0000 MsMary 1223061@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it works beautifully!&nbsp; I love yellow with black and white!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-yellow-1#post-1223057 Mon, 14 Apr 2014 17:14:47 +0000 Suzanne (ambergreen) 1223057@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this combo too, especially with your bag (and I'm not a handbag person). But wow, look at the inspiration photo...they just HAD to put honeycomb in there didn't they?</p> <p>I'm on Team Orange with leopardluxe as well, and yes, Americans' problem with orange and black is also so annoying. I really wish they would get past the predictable comments and just let us wear these happy combos! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-yellow-1#post-1223044 Mon, 14 Apr 2014 17:07:46 +0000 Thistle 1223044@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous. I think the lovely top in the print removes all bumblebee from the ensemble. :)</p> <p></p> <p>So pretty and fresh. Makes me think of spring and daffodils. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-yellow-1#post-1222934 Mon, 14 Apr 2014 14:26:51 +0000 Angie 1222934@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wooohoooo. Happy, HAPPY outfit. 11 out of 10. You are so fab, Shannon. </p> <p>The combo would look great with white pants too.&nbsp;xo </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-yellow-1#post-1222900 Mon, 14 Apr 2014 13:34:52 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1222900@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay for yellow and black combo lovers :)&nbsp; </p> <p>Parsley - this top and jacket does look great with my white jeans in the summer. This little tank top has been one of my best wee purchases.</p> <p>Thanks all! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-yellow-1#post-1222892 Mon, 14 Apr 2014 13:23:19 +0000 Parsley 1222892@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love black and yellow, and your outfit works beautifully, Shannon! It doesn't remind me of bumblebees at all. I bet that jacket and top will look great with white pants, too, for summer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-yellow-1#post-1222886 Mon, 14 Apr 2014 13:18:00 +0000 viva 1222886@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love this outfit, Shannon! And that bag is beautiful. I have a lot of black and white and just bought a yellow/citron bag, so I will be rocking this color combo this spring/summer. Buzz buzz. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-yellow-1#post-1222883 Mon, 14 Apr 2014 13:14:29 +0000 lyn67 1222883@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Clapping hands, so beautiful and makes me smile to my ears, Shannon!!! Love, love, love!!! That top is awesome! It just &nbsp;pulls all together efforthlessy! Oh and shoes and bags are alos very coordinated! LOVE!!!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-yellow-1#post-1222860 Mon, 14 Apr 2014 12:26:14 +0000 Niefern 1222860@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the outfit and also it is very flattering.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-yellow-1#post-1222853 Mon, 14 Apr 2014 12:13:42 +0000 leopardluxe 1222853@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love black and yellow as a color combination (I also like orange and black combos, which have their own Halloween connotations instead of bumblebee ones --funny how we create these cognitive associations with certain color combinations).</p> <p>I think this outfit looks fantastic, even better than the inspiration outfit, because the graphic print shirt you're wearing actually has some yellow to pull it all together. The whole outfit looks great on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-yellow-1#post-1222842 Mon, 14 Apr 2014 11:37:57 +0000 Asingh 1222842@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it! Works all the way!&nbsp;:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-yellow-1#post-1222841 Mon, 14 Apr 2014 11:35:53 +0000 Lantana 1222841@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the colour combination. Not everyone can wear yellow successfully but you can, Shannon. There are some lovely arcs in your outfit composition: handbag, blazer hem, sliver of instep and the patterned top. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-black-yellow-1#post-1222834 Mon, 14 Apr 2014 11:29:47 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1222834@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I realize many folks don't like black and yellow together (bumble bee connotations?) but I often like to wear really high contrast outfits and this combination tickles my fancy.</p> <p>This outfit is a loose copycat of a Pinterest black and yellow outfit I really like. I started with my black baby bootcut trousers and paired them with my graphic print multicolour tank. I then topped that with my bright yellow with white piping Academy blazer, with scrunched sleeves. I added my black/white leather handbag and taupe leather wrap watch for accessories.</p> <p>The Pinterest version has just a black and white top and a chunky gold necklace. But I decided because my top was a bit "busier" than that, a chunky gold necklace just seemed like too much.</p> <p>So what do you think? Does it work? As always, all comments/suggestions welcome.</p> <p>Blazer: Gap<br />Tank: Laura Petite<br />Trousers: Reitmans<br />Shoes: Calvin Klein<br />Handbag: Danier Leather (thrifted) </p>
